Trade analyst Taran Adarsh pointed that the response for both the films are good. “Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 is a horror-comedy film to watch, Singham Again has high drama. It’s good for the industry that both films are being well-received,” he said to ANI. He even said that if both perform well, there is likelihood that they could organize a joint party to celebrate success.
Ashish Kanakia, the CEO of MovieMax Cinema says that it will continue in that position as expected of Singham Again. “The promotional releases for festivals usually capture massive viewership. These films target the dedicated cores of fans and provide niche entertainment, he said, adding that he would like these releases to help the industry make up for prior losses.
However, Singham Again goes on generating the cop series of Shetty while Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 explores the recently boarded horror-comedy genre. The Diwali blockbuster fights have finally begun with Devgn’s Mass action thriller style against Aaryan’s extra motion comedy horror and scare show.
